day 25

Today I got to help Philip and Thomas in their AWANA group. They do a great job helping the kids learn about God and the Bible. I really enjoyed my time. I'm sure I'll be helping more often.
I'm also making an adoption Christmas slide show. I should be finished with it today. I just started making it yesterday, but the response from adoptive parents has been great and I am almost finished. It will be posted on our adoption blog, and youtube.
Nicole and I are hoping to travel to Mexico next summer to build a house for a poor family. Nicole has been very busy earning the money to pay for her own flight and expenses. We also hope to raise $5000 to pay for the building materials for one house. If you would like to help pay for a house for a poor family in Mexico then you can do that by using the paypal donation on the side bar. All the money will go towards building materials. If you would like to read more about the Mexican trips, or join a team look HERE. Today I just thank God for new energy.

Olivia is born

My niece had a beautiful baby girl named Olivia Rose (Beautiful name). Everyone is very excited and thank God healthy! Congratulations to the whole family! Hugs to my sister Shelley who is now a proud grandma for the 2nd time. My sister Dianna has 6 grand kids (I think). My brother and I are too young for such an blessing. At least our kids are too young. I'm going to have to wait to be called grandma. Here is a cool picture I took off Shelley's blog. It shows Eric (the tired but proud grandpa) Lissa with her first daughter Charlotte, and then a sleeping Olivia Rose. 3 generations in one shot. How fast life goes by! How beautiful life can be!

painting the garage

Rick goes home in the morning. I'm sure he will be happy to see his kids again. 3 weeks is along time to be away. The time has passed so fast. It's been really wonderful! So wonderful!!! We may stay up all night, that way he can sleep well on the flight. Hopefully his jet lag will be less this way! Anyway, here is his painting. It turned out more then good! I really love it...just like I love my brother! We will have to do this again soon!

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.
